I hope things are going well for you and that your first, ever, post at both snape_potter and Ao3 went well enough to encourage you into writing some more snarry for us. ^.^
I'm back to give you a proper answer to your initial review of this chapter, as promised:
I love how you think Severus' weakness for 'his' blanket means that he has accepted both Harry’s affection and his home as a part of his own life. :D
I think Severus' exhaustion when it comes to Teddy’s antics comes from his own lack of practice in dealing with such small children. He's used to solitude so that much activity around him will get on his nerves something fierce, and the fact that he has no control whatsoever over his surroundings is making everything worse. :D
Severus' lack of control over his own reactions works in Harry's favor here because it allows him to be the kitty's 'hero' in a way that he'd never be able to be otherwise. Severus is so accomplished a wizard -and so used to dealing with his own troubles all by himself- that he'd never need Harry's help under normal circumstances, but it was important for him to realize that Harry would come to his rescue, no questions asked, if he ever needed him to do so. :D
Thanks so much for taking the time to both read and review another chapter of this cray story of mine. Your kind and lovely comment meant the world to me, my friend.
